The 14-year-old who was hit by a car in Montreal on Monday has died from his injuries.
The accident occurred around 6:50 p.m. near the intersection of Lachapelle and Émile-Nelligan streets in the Ahuntsic-Cartierville borough.
According to initial information reported by the Montreal City Police Service (SPVM), the young man was hit by a car while he was riding an electric scooter.
He would have been on the west side of Lachapelle Street and attempted to cross eastbound near the intersection. It was then that he was allegedly hit by a vehicle traveling on rue Lachapelle in a northbound direction, indicates agent Antony Dorelas, spokesperson for the SPVM.
The SPVM confirmed Tuesday the death of the teenager in a hospital center.
SPVM patrol officers went to the scene Monday, while investigators seek to understand the causes and circumstances surrounding this accident.
